Keep smelling oil after driving, take a look

Coming from back turbo - hard to get a good shot but you can see it and smell it when hot. 

Isn't there a TSB for this? What is it if there is.  Would like to go to the dealer prepared.

IF you can with your hand when the car is cold of course and place tour hand around the rear valve cover gasket and check to see if there is oil in that area,cause 4,5,6 bank valve cover gasket are notorious for leaks,especially #6 spark plug well on the 13+SHO,let me know and keep us updated.Z.
 
I would also check for any codes set,any hesitation,rough idle,misfire issues besides the oil saturation.Z.
 
If the hose is indeed in tact and in perfect shape (i.e. no cracks or stress splits) then I wonder if a catch can would solve this.
 
If its the hose,a nice set off hotpipes are in order,will prevent any future cracking,splitting from happening,especially by the firewall,where the hoses are more prone to cracks,due to the heat.
